WWE Hall of Famer Ric flair remains hospitalized in Atlanta, Georgia, where’s he’s been since Saturday. An initial statement from Flair’s agent, Melinda Morris Zanoni, noted that he was undergoing routine monitoring. According to local media reports, Flair is dealing with heart-related issues and. On Monday, Zanoni implied that Flair’s condition had worsened and asked for everybody’s prayers and good energy.
Dave Meltzer commented on the Flair’s condition on the f4wonline.com message board. “Charlotte was well aware of everything while in China, that much I know. She was one of the few. Must have been a turn for the worst. I was pretty concerned when I heard nothing all day, was just too long since I heard from anyone.”
In his 2004 autobiography, Flair wrote about having a heart condition related to alcohol consumption. “Through my many years of partying, I also developed something called “alcoholic cardiomyopathy,” a weakening of the heart muscles,” Flair wrote on page 304. “I first detected that there was something wrong when my heart began skipping beats. I went to a cardiologist friend who told me that when your heart pumps, it expands like a rubber band. But mine was doing it too much. Initially, I thought that steroids might be responsible, but the doctor dismissed this theory. My heaert was fluttering from thirty-fivbe years of hitting it hard.
WWE producer Michael Hayes visited Flair in the hospital on Sunday and also asked for people to keep Ric Flair in their thoughts and prayers.

I can assure that he needs everyone's prayers and positive vibes. Thx in advance!!
